Introducing the lovable Chocolate Bum Bums!


Well, I came up with another addition to my line of stuff that I sell. They're called Chocolate Bum Bums. You've heard of chocolate Bon Bons, right? Well, these are kind of like that, but you can't eat them, and once you look at them, you can't help but smile.

THEY ARE SO CUTE! And I had so much fun making them. :o)

Anyway, I've attached a picture so you can see, and I already have a box of 3 for sale on my shop site. Take a peek and then tell yourself, "I have to buy these just because they are so cute!"


I also added some Woobits too! I have more colors than what's in my shop, but I'll be adding those hopefully this weekend. So thanks for reading and I'll be posting soon!

Tootles!

Let me introduce my Woobits!!











These little guys are just the cutest little things on the face of the planet! SERIOUSLY!!




I think it's the eyes and the nose that make them so gosh darn cute. I've included pictures of a couple that I have made. I'm going to make some for Valentine's Day (which I guess I'd better get on the ball if I want to make them available for Valentine's.





Anyhoo...thanks for reading and don't forget to check out my shop site on etsy.

Apparently I have issues writing on a blog - mainly I don't really write much on it. BUT I Googled Silly Toes Productions today and my blog popped up plus my Etsy Shop site. How neat! Well, my puppets are off and running. I've sold 6 so far and my customers seem to like them. No complaints so far.
WHEW!
I'm starting a new endeavor. They are called Woobits. Now these aren't puppets, but they are just the cutest little things. Typically I wouldn't have a picture handy to post as I am entering this little tidbit, but I'll make sure I get one in the next few days. Maybe I can upload a picture of the logo I created for them.
I'm also thinking about starting some greeting cards. Not sure really if I'm going to do it, but I've come up with some cute ideas that I think might work.
I'm just having so much fun right now just thinking up stuff.
Tee-hee!
Anyway, if you get a chance, please check out my shop and thanks for reading!
PS: I can't find my Woobits logo. I will post in a few days.

Silly Toes Productions still figuring things out! :o)

Well, apparently there's a different way to advertise my shop site on Etsy. Thanks Amy for helping me add the correct link.

I am in business!!

Hello to anyone out there who loves puppets. I just caught my sister's blog and thought, "whoa! I better update mine a bit, seeing as I have not written anything on it since November." But why would I not be writing anything? Well, it's because I've been making puppets! And I must say -- not trying to toot my own horn, but toot toot -- they are so cute!!!

Here is the link to my etsy shop site. Even if you don't decide to purchase a puppet, that's okay. I just get a kick out of all the people who actually take the time to view my creations. They are called FooZoozles. I would love to tell you where I came up with the name, but it just came to me one day!

Anyway, I hope you all get a chance to check out my stuff.

Red Fuzzy Monster


Well, I tried my hand at making a fuzzy red monster. He didn't turn out as good as I would have liked but he's still kind of cute (kind of...okay maybe not...oh, I don't know). I won't consider him a Foozoozle because he looks nothing like a Foozoozle, but by making him it is inspiring me to move onto another kind of puppet. It's called the "Melon Head" puppet. Basically, if you've ever seen Sesame Street (which if you haven't then you were never a child and you were obviously born an adult) and if you've seen precious little Elmo, he would be considered a Melon Head puppet. Okay, now I could be totally off the mark here, but he looks like a Melon Head to me.
At some point I will purchase some cute long pile faux fur and then purchase the pattern to make it. As for now I'll keep at it with my Foozoozles. They are super simple to make and I'm making some modifications to make production easier and faster. We shall see. As for now, I have attached a picture of my red monster, even though he's not my favorite. Pardon my hand...I wanted to try to get a picture of him with his mouth closed. I tried very hard NOT to copy Elmo. Elmo is truly one of a kind.

I'm just starting out!

I'm at my real job right now and all I can think about are puppets. Yes...puppets! I've made a few and have been having a blast at it, and I'm thinking of selling them. I had several people suggest that I start a blog to get started. Maybe someone will come across this and also be interested in what I'm doing. I've never blogged before let alone read a blog, so here I am...blogging. Weird. But once I figure out how to insert pictures of the puppets I've made I will share them.
I'm very excited about this. It very well could be a dream come true. Who knows...I could be the next Jim Henson? Tee-hee!
Anyway, I'm going to officially post this now and see what it looks like. I'm being very silly right now (maybe borderline dorky) but who cares...maybe that's why I chose Silly Toes Productions for my title.
Thanks!
